Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: Stage II is divided into stages IIA and IIB. In stage IIA, the tumor is
mid-grade (somewhat likely to grow and spread quickly) or high-grade (likely to grow
and spread quickly) and 5 centimeters or smaller. It may be either superficial (in
subcutaneous tissue with no spread into connective tissue or muscle below) or deep
(in the muscle and may be in connective or subcutaneous tissue). In stage IIB, the
tumor is mid-grade (somewhat likely to grow and spread quickly) and larger than 5
